The United States Secretary of Health everybody!

He was even pulling the β€˜that’s his job’ shtick when discussing Sesko’s outstanding finish on Tuesday. Give me a break man.

Roy Keane quickly becoming unbearable on United these days, almost a caricature of himself on this week’s Stick to Football. Just relentlessly negative in a way he isn’t about other clubs.

A colossal megatwat, this guy.

Unbelievably strange and weak response from Starmer here, he looks pathetic.

The glass cliff theory in action.

Wow, what an innovative idea. Maybe they could call it β€˜cable’?

Honestly, the streaming wars have been a spectacular waste of time and money for all concerned.

More tinkering around the edges from Paramount that fundamentally does not address WBD’s primary concerns about their offer and their financing (which are immovable from the Paramount side). Just give it up.

Seems it’s a matter of when, not if, now for Starmer. The lack of obvious successor is pretty much the only reason he has to cling on now.

Pretty remarkable feat to have squandered such a seismic election win in this way after less than two years, but this really has been such a terrible govt.

What a waste of time. The worst of everything, nobody is happy.

Szoboszlai protests and gets a red card and the goal is disallowed. A farcical end to the game, get rid of VAR.

It really takes some doing to be this incompetent. Credit to Yvette Cooper.

This is quintessential Starmer. Outstanding work. No political leader has ever been more adept at appealing to nobody.

This has surely got to be terminal for Starmer.

He was already a lame duck PM, but his appalling judgement on Mandelson strikes at the heart of his entire β€˜brand’ as a leader. What is the point of him now?

I’m thus far unconvinced by the merits of banning social media for under 16s, but we will, in a few years, have a very good way to assess its impact in Australia.

Pushing for the UK to implement the same ban *before* we’ve even seen whether it works or not in Australia strikes me as moronic.

I’m afraid it appears Esther Ghey has lost all rational perspective and seems unable to acknowledge the fact that her daughter was murdered because she was trans, not because of social media.

This ban wouldn’t have helped Brianna, and it certainly won’t help other young trans people.

How is this any different to the stated aims of the last Conservative govt that was resoundingly beaten? Who is this supposed to be appealing to?

Really enjoy how Weiss starts this banal diatribe with β€œI get it” and then proceeds to demonstrate how she literally doesn’t. Exceptional work. This could be a parody.

β€˜Former academic’ is certainly one way of describing an abhorrent racist.

Not sure it’s quite the convincing and reassuring argument Mahmood thinks it is to say β€˜well, we don’t have guns’ as if that’s the only part of ICE’s tactics that are deeply alarming and could easily be replicated here.

I don’t buy into the β€˜Labour are struggling in govt mainly because they are bad at comms!’ argument, but yeah, they are really terrible at publicising the few good policy initiatives they have implemented.

My heart bleeds for her, truly. The idea of only having *one* home in my retirement doesn’t bear thinking about.

I honestly don’t think I’ve ever known a more unjust and entitled campaign that has actually somehow gained traction like this from unserious politicians. I’d sooner support a campaign for a ban on sandcastles.

Not to mention that the proposed compensation required to this entirely unworthy cause is so outrageously absurd that the govt literally couldn’t afford it anyway even if they wanted to.

26.01.2026 23:11 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Nice that over 100 MPs have voluntarily put their names to a letter that simply confirms they are deeply unserious and out of touch on the real issues.

The appropriate compensation for the WASPI women is Β£0. There is no β€˜justice’ to seek here. It is an entirely unjust cause.

I think the thing that killed the administration was that they were so gung-ho to find a reason that Pretti deserved to die that they accidentally declared that that the second amendment isn't real.

I knew this was Chris Mason before I even clicked the link. The guy is an absolute joke, behaves and writes like he’s a columnist in Heat magazine.

A disgrace and an insult that he purports to be a serious journalist and political editor for our national broadcaster.

Honestly I thought she’d already defected and I had forgotten she was even still an MP.

Credit to Farage as he continues to build a coalition of the most vile politicians in the country.
